Prairie Central CUSD #8

The start time for the PCHS varsity football game scheduled at St. Teresa in Decatur for this Saturday, September 13, has been moved up to an 11am start time due to expected heat.

7th grade math is working on determining scaled copies and sorting shapes based on scale factor.

We are excited to share that our Homecoming store is open! Lots of different options are available in two colorways and in youth through adult sizes. The store closes on Sunday, September 21.
